Asia-Pacific Nazarene Theological Seminary, located in Manila, Philippines, is accepting applications for a new president.

The Board of Trustees is seeking a person who has the following characteristics:  

1. A transformational leader: A visionary, self-assured, entrepreneur, team developer, and listener; one who empowers others, is comfortable with risk-taking, and creates positive ethos.
2. Demonstrated missional effectiveness: A person with the ability to move APNTS to an expanding, multi-site system with various curriculum delivery models and extension centers.
3. An effective transformational pastor: A person who has demonstrated the ability to make disciples that make disciples; a person mature in the fruit of the Spirit.
4. Administrative abilities: A person with the ability to guide resources to effective, multi-site strategic use, including the ability to manage finance, operations, campus facilities, and environment.
5. Effective cross-cultural communicator: A person who appreciates, understands, and communicates effectively across multiple cultures and contexts.  
6. Known for personal, doctrinal integrity: A person who is in harmony with the message and mission of the Church of the Nazarene.

The Board of Trustees envisions APNTS transitioning from a single campus system to a multi-site school, utilizing a variety of delivery systems relevant to the contexts throughout the Asia-Pacific Region and South Asia. The new president will give priority to making this transition take place. The term of office will be via a renewable contract, four years in duration, subject to a favorable review every second full year. A negotiated salary and benefits package commensurate with the standing of APNTS as a Global Mission institution will be offered.

Applications and curriculum vitaes can be sent to board chairman Kafoa Muaror at kmuaror@apnaz.org and Asia-Pacific Region Education Coordinator John Moore at jmoore@apnaz.org by May 30.
